Suzuki VLR1800 Service Manual

Engine General Information and Diagnosis: 1A-22
Fail-Safe Function Table
B822H11104007
FI system is provided with fail-safe function to allow the engine to start and the motorcycle to run in a minimum
performance necessary even under malfunction condition.
The engine can start and can run even if the signal in the table is not received from each sensor. But, the engine
running condition is not complete, providing only emergency help (by fail-safe circuit). In this case, it is necessary to
bring the motorcycle to the workshop for complete repair.
When two ignition signals or two injector signals are not received by ECM, the fail-safe circuit can not work and ignition
or injection is stopped.
